New Zealand Cricket have unveiled a packed home-schedule for 2026, with India’s mega tour to the country headlining the list of fixtures. The Indian cricket team is all set to spend at least a couple of months in New Zealand as they will take on the Kiwis in a five-match T20I and ODI series, followed by a two-match Test series. Revenge will be on the minds of Shubman Gill and co. as they look to bounce back in the longest format of the game after they were whitewashed at home in 2024.
India to tour New Zealand in Oct-Nov
New Zealand’s home season will commence with the five-match T20I series against India in October 2026. The Men in Blue last faced the Kiwis in the T20 World Cup 2026 final in Ahmedabad where they lifted the trophy for the second time after securing an emphatic win. The T20I series will be followed by a five-match ODI series in November. This series will be important for both teams, with the 2027 ODI World Cup just around the horizon. Following this, a two-match Test series will be played. The tour will take place across five major centres, with the 12 matches the most internationals scheduled for an in-bound tour in NZC history.
Following the series against India, New Zealand will host Sri Lanka for 3 ODIs, 3 T20Is and 2 Tests in January-February 2027. Meanwhile, the New Zealand women’s cricket team will host Bangladesh for a three-match ODI and T20I series in December 2026.

The passion and the following this team has is staggering – not to mention some of the players expected to tour such as Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah – so we’re bracing for the intensity and fandom that will accompany the tour,” NZC’s Glenn Critchley said.
